you get kicked out anytime any day, they may run advert on your blog, they may redirect your visitors to another site, their server is slow, they don't offer mostly all features etc. Free hosting should only be used for testing and practise purpose

1. You basically don't have the full control of your website's administration.
2. You must expect your site to show ads that will never generate cash for you but your host.
3. Possibility of domain theft.
4. There's also limited space and bandwidth.
5. No security for your site.
6. Expect your site to be deleted at any time.
7. Your host will solely determine the type of site you can run, basically, your choices will be limited.

The above list is little of What your free host can do to you, always go for paid hosts.

Some of the advantages and disadvantages actually vary from one free host service to another.
I have a website that I've been operating since November 17, 2006. It is an entirely free hosting service; but I've found a lot of advantages in this particular free hosting service to the extent that I stick to them. Never paid a single penny but has made a lot of money from using this service. God willing on November 17 this year my free hosting website will be exactly 10 years old. Now, this is not really a promotion for that free hosting service that I've been using but to make a point that a few of them, while still having a couple or so limitations as some posters pointed out above, are quite good that they are worth the try. Still, the ultimate is paid hosting service if you don't want limitations.

PM me for the information. I will give you a very good one. I won't ask you for anything o and you won't pay them any single penny. It's a win-win-win situation for you. You are the one who will gain, all the way. And it's very easy to do.

I've been using my own for almost 10 years now, without paying a dime, directly or indirectly. Rather, I am the one who makes money through it. Things like that are very rare, but bros, they exist.

Many Disadvantages , files uploaded to free host are always deleted perhaps yearly.
